Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Genomic selection can increase genetic gain within aquaculture breeding programs, but the high costs related to high-density genotyping of a large number of individuals would make the breeding program expensive. In this study, a low-cost method using low-density genotyping of pre-selected candidates and their sibs was evaluated by stochastic simulation. METHODS: A breeding scheme with selection for...
